Bristol Centre for Enablement

Having been coming here for a little while now. All of the staff are very friendly and helpful. Very relaxed atmosphere.

This is a good centre for enablement. We have had issues in the past with no follow up and no contact about follow up appointments. But now, 2 years on they have completely changed. They have been working hard and have been committed to getting my Dad back on to walking and fitting a prosthetic, it is a shame it has taken 2 years to get to this stage, after lots of ringing and emails and finally getting the GP to do a referral again.Really good service now, staff are friendly and always welcome you with a smile.

Engaging and supportive team that make me feel good, and put a lot of energy into my recovery. Andy (prothetist) and Lucy (physio) have been committed and enthusiastic from the start. These are good people that I am indebted to. I am grateful to all at Bristol Enablement Centre for their help during hard times.

So welcoming, there are spaces just for the patients right by the door, different types of chairs in the waiting room, didn't have to wait at all for my appointment and the orthotist got me exactly what I needed.

Excellent staff, fantastic choice of Prosthetics, brilliant orthopaedic service.Amazing NHS facility.

The BCFE is an amazing place, full of dedicated people who work tirelessly to ensure that they offer the best service possible! I voluntarily transferred from Exeter Mobility Centre (who sadly are totally under funded and under staffed and are being run into the ground by bean counters ). Bristol is acknowledged amongst BLESMA members as a centre of excellence and despite the 140 mile round trip to go there each time I wouldn't want to go anywhere else! My prosthetist is second to none, a very pleasant, helpful caring young lady who is also immensely skilled. Everyday I feel grateful to all the staff for their encouragement, skill and help that has allowed me to get my life back again! What more can I say other than 'Thank You!

I have been coming since 1964 and always found the Limb centre the most helpful from reception and to Adrian the fitter and of course the Young Lady who answers the phone and sends out Leg socks etc. 10/10 Stars for me every time. Bob Bristol

Having to deal with heart surgury bypass and valve replacement then because of sepsis being told you are going to lose your leg that's a tough experience to deal with but with my determination and the help from the staff at the centre who helped me to regain my conference to walk again it was so uplifting and I'm for ever grateful so thankyou for all the hard work you do

The lady I spoke to was quite unhelpful. She just kept saying that's the only appointment she had available but was not interested in trying to help any further or offer any guidance. I would expect to speak to someone who was more helpful. Despite the fact that I've said that I'm a carer and my mother relies on me being mobile, she was very resistant in speaking to the orthotist to see if they could see me earlier or if they had any other availability. All she wanted to do was to get me off the phone.
